Just picked a dch2 model with height control and I'm missing the software. Called plasma cam and they said that the software that came with the machine is obsolete and it's going to be 2g to update.:shocking: They don't even have the original software to download so I'm dead in the water if I...

tungsten carbide, one last as many of 30 ceramic nozzles. Someone on fleebay makes them to fit the tp gun. 29bucks I believe. Or 50 from TP.

They're a lot of polishers on here but GG also has a lot of professional techs. Some people speed big bucks on them so they take care in there tools. As for organizing and multiple sets. If you ever work per job, just taking off a socket off a ratchet adds up hence multiple ratchets, extensions...

I got the Makita version, it's lower rating but it looks the same. It spins at 5300? where the Milwaukee is 5800 and is 8in blade compared to 7-1/4 on the makita. Bought it to cut an 1-1/2 aluminum and 1-1/4 steel plate. Might do it tomorrow but we'll see. Thanks for the review, I was kinda...

Oh yeah thats for the "FN" style. "DA" style cylinder is $12 something, same price on the driver.

I just looked up the parts on ereplacementparts.com, pistion/driver assy (9R203772)$27.34, cylinder (9R188809) $6.24 Might be worth it?

The firing pin should move up and down with out much force. I think you have a nail under the firing pin which is putting pressure on it. Also make sure it's disconnected and you have the spring pressure off the feeding system. If all's good then pull the head and look down to make sure nothing...

looking good, Im in the middle of repairing and restoring a 13in southbend gearhead. Good times.

"No hands on experience" get him the bearing buddy. Takes the place of the bearing cap and has a zerk fitting for a grease gun. Don't have to take it apart and mess with the pre-load.
